I find topic after topic of, what is your favorite fight and why, yet none of the least favorite.

For me it would me Lee vs Raiga. Simply because the Anime crew did such a poor job with it, When Lee took off his weights in any other fight his speed was unmatched, except for by Sasuke when he faught Garaa. Yet in that fight, when he removed them, he was a slow moving, bad taijutsu fighter, His cartwheels were horrible and he got beat way to quickly. Now that was just a filler episode and if I were to pick one from the 'Cannon' it would have to be, Naruto vs Neji, Naruto only used one main technique, the Kage bushin, an overly used one at that. But the reason I pick that is because after being beaten over and over Naruto knocked Neji down with one uppercut, and that was it, I don't think that's the way it should have gone down, Neji faught Lee many times, and even though Neji always evaded Lee's attacks, he still wouldn't have been ended by one hit. I would love to hear anyone elses opinion on any of the fights.

And on a side note, if you want to list a fight from the manga please use spoiler tags for those who don't read it.

It's Hinata's only canon fight, and she loses it horribly (getting the crap beaten out of her in the process).

At that point..it was almost certain that Hyuuga Neji was like within the top 3 of the best "genins" at that exam.

For Hyuuga Hinata to face (previous number 1 rookie) Neji is simply a dead end for everyone.

At that point only Gaara or Rock Lee would stand a chance. All others would surely lose. Also i'd say she did very well against Hyuuga's greatest genius.

If Temari (strongest girl at the exam) were to engage Hinata with close combat...she'd surely lose. If you ask me that fight was pretty tense and great. Since she almost had him....almost ..just after the point Neji hit her..it was pretty much over.

Dont forget that (probably for safety reasons, Juuken Style) pretty much every Konoha Jounin stopped him.
[Gai, Kakashi, Kurenai & Hayate...the top jounins of Konoha...only Asuma was to lazy to go out there]

Naruto vs Kiba, Naruto vs. Kabuto, Sasuke vs. Itachi, Sakura vs. Zaku, and Sakura vs Ino have got to be the worst fights in the whole series, bar none. They were all horrible in their own special ways.

In the exam hinata was the strongest female ninja (besides temari perhaps). And to have these 2 siblings fight each is a very interesting point of view of the anime.

To see her fight against a genius is quite interesting. Besides both of them are from the strongest clan of konoha and are fighting with the same technique.

I liked the fight because you saw, that hinata can fight and see how hard her youth must have been.

although the idea on the point of view of the message of that fight, was to make it clear to the audience she has had feelings for naruto since forever. And of course she was willing to give it her everything to make naruto look at her, even if it meant fighting which she doesn't like to do.

But it also showed she could fight, maybe not with neji since his skills are way superior to hers (or so it seems), but among all the females she is between the best, and probably a contender for one or two males.

the match up was just awful, lee at that time could've easily beaten anyone except maybe the sand siblings, shino, and neji. To think that someone of lee's quality (at that time) missing out of the knockout stages, its just too painful too watch
